MUSIC: Further Email Exchanges about Music in One's Head

This is another email exchange on music I had with Beau, a person who I was a Peace Corps volunteer with in southern Africa. - OlderMusicGeek

BEAU:

I'm surprised by all the responses I got from the song in my head. Such good returns from the investment of just of a few silly lines! While we're on the subject, note that almost any Beatles song can be improved by using lunch instead of love.

All we need is lunch, yeah.
Lunch is all we need.

What's even more incredible is that it works with LeAnne Rimes too!

Some say Lunch, it is a Sandwich
with pickles, and Mayonnaise

ME:

A great way to annoy your children I found - is to throw their name in song wherever possible - especially a song they like...

(to Promiscuous Girl)
oh sloppy Jen
you're killing me
you know I want
a clean room's what you need

(to shut up and drive)
Go from 0 to 60 in three point five
Jen you got the rag
Now shut up and clean
(clean, clean, clean)
Shut up and clean
(clean, clean, clean)

MUSIC: Songs in One's Head

This is an email exchange between me and a person I was a Peace Corps volunteer with, who I'll call Beau, who I put on here before. - OlderMusicGeek

BEAU:

I've had a song in my head.

I don't normally watch 'American Idol' but it was on the other night and I was in the room and some guy was belting out a Doors song. That in itself wouldn't be so bad, but my wife's been after me to fill up the front right tire on her car which looks pretty low. She'd been bothering me day and night over that stupid tire, it's one of those 'shut up already!' things. Between that and the American Idol song, I have this thing in my head. It goes like this:

Come on baby check my tire.
The pressure needs to still go higher.
Do it be--fore we retire.
You said you would, don't be a liar.
Come on baby check my tire!

ME:

That's as bad as me coming up with commercials - thank the god for pop tunes that I do NOT work in advertising...

shout

shout

spray it all out

these are the stains we can do without

come one I'm washing with you

come in

And to sting's song...

free free

Pepsi free

if you dont need caffeine, call it's name

if you want less tension, you do the same

if you want keep blood pressure precious

you lock tension up and throw away the key

don't hold onto your colas

and just relax with me

if dont want caffeine, set it free

free, free pepsi free

Somebody save me!

BOOKS: Spam Poetry

This is from me, OlderMusicGeek, not a reprinted article.

Well, I'm still doing experimental poetry! But instead of subject lines from emails of pornographers, I just used the regular spam.
